Loren Taylor’s darkly comic debut feature THE MOON IS UPSIDE DOWN was awarded Best First Feature at the closing ceremony of the Tallinn Black Nights Film Festival this weekend after sell-out screenings at the highly regarded A-List festival in Estonia.
STUFF/ WAIKATO TIMES Graeme Tuckett 4/5 stars "This is a literate, clever and blackly funny gem. It won't be for everyone, but I think if you like The Moon is Upside Down at all, you'll probably love it. Bravo."
In this New Zealand black comedy, three women - a duped mail-order bride, a numbed anaesthetist determined to have a romantic weekend, and an empty nester on an unexpected mission of mercy - each navigates her way through an unfamiliar landscape and the contours of the human heart.
DIRECTED by Loren Taylor

Be Careful What You Post
James Croot Stuff 4.5/5 "A sometimes manic mystery, a compelling character study and a crowd-pleasing courtroom drama all rolled into one, Little Letters is truly wicked fun."
A 1920s English seaside town bears witness to a farcical and occasionally sinister scandal in this riotous mystery comedy. Based on a stranger than fiction true story, WICKED LITTLE LETTERS follows two neighbours: deeply conservative local Edith Swan (Olivia Colman) and rowdy Irish migrant Rose Gooding (Jessie Buckley). When Edith and fellow residents begin to receive wicked letters full of unintentionally hilarious profanities, foul-mouthed Rose is charged with the crime. The anonymous letters prompt a national uproar, and a trial ensues. However, as the town’s women - led by Police Officer Gladys Moss (Anjana Vasan) - begin to investigate the crime themselves, they suspect that something is amiss, and Rose may not be the culprit after all.
PRODUCER: Graham Broadbent
DIRECTOR: Thea Sharrock
WITH: Olivia Colman, Timothy Spall, Eileen Atkins, Gemma Jones, Anjana Vasan, Jessie Buckley, Joanna Scanlan, Malachi Kirby, Lolly Adefope

Graeme Tuckett Waikato Times/ Stuff 4/5 Stars "A mostly very watchable and enjoyable ride. There's a good handful of set-pieces here – the jam session that led to the writing of the title track of Exodus is a standout, a visit to a pub in London where The Clash are playing is another."
